My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1596

Hendrix had always been that way. He did things flawlessly, leaving no chance for his opponent to react at all.

Sean got up and made a phone call. After returning, he accepted Hendrix's conditions as expected. After signing the agreement, he left with his assistants as if they had lost a battle.

As soon as they left, it was only me and Hendrix left in the conference room.

"Stop pretending. There's no one here anymore." I reached out and slapped Hendrix's hand off my belly. "Don't take advantage of me!"

Hendrix shrugged his shoulders resentfully. Obviously, he was not happy. Men were never satisfied.

I thought about the unwilling look in Sean's eyes when he left the conference room, and compared it to when I first met him as he came gentlemanly. He looked completely different, making me feel flustered. I still felt that GW Group was not that simple. I couldn't help but doubt our future collaboration, asking, "Are you really going to continue working with them?" "What do you think?" Hendrix replied as he leaned back in his chair casually.

Guessing each other's thoughts seemed to have become a common thing between the two of us. I sighed and reluctantly went along with him, saying, "I think you don't seem to have any other choices since the agreement has been made?"

Hendrix laughed, "You said that you didn't want to see me anymore, but now you're still hanging out with me in bed every day, right?"

"Hendrix Roberts!" I picked up the only thing on the table, which was a fountain pen, and threw it at him with a deadly glare.

Ever since we had been together, Hendrix had become more and more shameless!

Hendrix was quick to catch it. He swirled it in his hand like it was a toy. He was not threatened by me at all. Instead, he said casually with a hint of smug, "The agreement only says to prioritize GW Group. It doesn't mention that Roberts Group will definitely cooperate with them. If there's a better choice at that time, we'll just have to say that the two company's vision differs, or just any other excuse to get rid of them. What's there to worry about?"

"So you're just fooling around with them?" I was a little surprised.

Who could have a say in the ever- changing business world? If one wanted to make sure everything was under control, he had to have high adaptability. I had seen Hendrix speak in a strict manner or lowering his stance in the face of those big companies, but it was the first time I saw him making a fool of them. It was quite interesting.

"Who says that the boss of a listed company can't go back on things?" he said. Hendrix got up and carefully protected me as we walked outside, as if I was really pregnant. As we walked, he continued to say, "Do you really think that GW Group is any better than me for giving in so much? The truth is, even the tiniest share of a listed company can make a big difference in terms of authority. If I give in 15%, I can still be in control. If I give up 5% more, I would have to worry endlessly that they might be able to fully take control of Roberts Group. When it comes to this kind of matter, I am more careful than anyone else. GW Group is the one who's framing us. I have given them a verbal agreement, which is more than enough to avoid a conflict between the two companies."

I nodded thoughtfully. Even though there were some areas I didn't quite understand, there was one thing that I definitely agreed with. Judging from Sean's true side, he was indeed no different from a bandit. Collaborating with someone like that would get us into big trouble sooner or later.

While we were talking, we had already arrived at the elevator. Estella was also following us and pressed the elevator button for us.

The matter with GW Group finally came to an end, and I had nothing more to worry about. I went along with Hendrix's instructions and returned home.

In the car, Estella sat next to the driver while I sat alone in the back seat. Although we had quite a good relationship before, no one spoke to each other on the road that day.
